Well, you've read the notes, the notes were counting down, and now it is time for you to post until the counting down cows come home.

Good morning, all.

Thanks, Elmore, for the "Bitch in a Bonnet" suggestion. Just sent it to a friend who's an Austen fanatic for Christmas.

Good morning, all! I got to bed later than IK liked but I slept well. I suspect I will nap a bit when I get home from therapy.

I have nothing much to report. Before I leave this morning, I'll pay a few bills and prepare the day's Encores! work. I have nothing else on the calendar, so that's good.

Today is the 238th birthday of Jane Austen.  Like Flora Poste, i would like to write a novel as good as Persuasion.

Morning, everybody!

TOD: Would you believe, I don't think I've every read or seen a single Agatha Christie book/play/movie? Must rectify that deplorable situation someday...

Country legend Ray Price was eulogized yesterday after his son posted that the singer had died. Turns out Ray is still with us. Probably not for long, but he's still alive.

I had quite a case of the blahs yesterday and feelu up to doing much other than watch part of a fairly bad movie called THE YOUNG SWINGERS (starring Rod Lauren and Molly Bee) and multiple episodes of JULIA.

I hate having days like that. I had really planned to get a lot done this weekend, but I didn't.

Our script was only available electronically yesterday because it is being revised and rewritten.....we were told once again not to memorize yet....more changes are coming....so we shall see.

It's a nice group....only one participant from THE CRUCIBLE last year, so it's a lot of new names to remember.  We have many Asian cast members some of whom struggle a bit with English, but I think once they know the lines (and the names of the characters) it will be easier for them.

I don't think I have read an Agatha Christie novel or play that I did NOT like....all very interesting and entertaining.

Favorite movies:

EVIL UNDER THE SUN
TEN LITTLE INDIANS (1964 version)

RE: yesterday's discussion of homework and classes; it seems to me that there is more homework now than when I was in school. Of course that might just be that my school was different, or I didn't bother much with homework. I was not the best student...in fact when I look back at my report cards I am shocked at some of the grades that I got.

Like BK, and others here, I had no interest in math or science and thus I was not good at either. I took one semester of Algebra, then switched to business math. Fortunately for me, math was not a requirement in Junior or Senior years at my school.

I took biology, but remember little about it, other than dissecting a frog.

TOD:

I own, but have not read any Agatha Christie novels, but all movies that I have seen which were  based on Agatha Chistie stories I have loved.

AND THEN THERE WERE NONE (1945) and the Bollywood version titled GUMNAAM (1965) are my two favorites.
